Our first ripe orange of the season! The boys are vying for the chance to be the one to pluck it in all it's glory.
As we were driving home from preschool - bringing a friend home with us - it was the first thing Andrew told his friend about. "Guess what. You're not gonna believe this. We have an orange tree in our backyard and there is a RIPE ORANGE on it!! You're gonna LOVE our house."
Simple pleasures.
Which reminds me....Jake gave the Family Home Evening lesson on Monday night and it was on simple pleasures. He did a great job. Afterward we each took a turn saying something simple that makes us happy. Jake said flowers, and then expanded it to include "all of nature - it's beautiful." Andy said, "Can I say 'when Jacob plays with me?'" And of course I don't remember what Mike and I said. We're not as cute as them.
